Oh, dude, African violets don't need that much fertilizer. You can just give them a diluted dose every 4-6 weeks during their growing season. Like, they're not picky eaters, they're just chill little plants. Just don't go overboard, or they might get a bit too hyped up on all those nutrients, you know?
African violets need constant fertilizing each time you water them. Good fertilizer's are Jack's, Optimara, Miracle Go. Follow the directions on the label. Usually about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon per gallon of water or acording to size your mixing. This will give you nice foliage and beautiful flowers. Don't forget to flush out soil with plain water once a month to rinse out old fertilizer salts. I forgot to mention; violets also like fish imulsion as a change of pace once in awhile.
